Investment Memo
Auto-generated from the data layer — illustrative, not advice
- • CDMO margin recovery + ADC/sterile capacity underpins a 0% 5Y revenue CAGR.
- • Operating leverage as scale builds toward higher margins (currently 16% EBITDA).
- • Capacity already in place to support the next growth phase.
- • Low margins, leverage & ROCE recovery.
- • Pricing/NLEM exposure on the domestic book can cap realisation.
- • Valuation at 110x P/E prices in continued execution — little margin for error.
Piramal Pharma screens as a improving cdmo/crdmo franchise. With revenue of ₹9.2K Cr growing ~0% and 16% EBITDA margins, the base case is steady compounding driven by cdmo margin recovery + adc/sterile capacity, while watching low margins, leverage & roce recovery.
Trades at 110x P/E, 18.0x EV/EBITDA and 2.7x P/B. A premium to the sector — justified only if growth and returns hold.
